FRITO CORN SALAD RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Frito Corn Salad Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Tricia33

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 oz.) bag frozen corn kernels, thawed (see notes below)
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 green pepper, diced
1/2 cup red onion, finely diced
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp. Taco Seasoning
1 (10 1/4 oz.) bag Fritos (regular or chili cheese), crushed
pepper, to taste
Note: I like to use the frozen corn that has been thawed because I think it has more of a fresh corn taste. But 2 cans of well-drained corn will work with this too.

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine thawed corn, cheese, diced bell pepper and onions. Stir well. Then add in mayonnaise and taco seasoning. Stir until thoroughly combined. I like to season it with a little bit of pepper too (this is optional). Then just before serving, stir in crushed Fritos so they stay nice and crunchy. Some folks put in half the crushed Fritos at the time they make it, then add the other half in right before serving. I always think it looks pretty when you have a few crushed ones on top when you serve it. Note: Go with what is easiest for you when making this. Using pre-shredded cheese in a bag works just fine. And if you don't have time to thaw out a bag of corn, then use 2 (15 oz.) cans of corn that are drained really well. Also, for a big bump in flavor, try using the chili cheese or BBQ flavored Fritos.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, flavorful ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your corn salad will taste. Choose crisp, sweet corn, juicy tomatoes, and ripe avocado.
  • Choose the right type of corn: You can use fresh, frozen, or canned corn in this salad. If using fresh corn, remove the kernels from the cob. If using frozen corn, thaw it before using. If using canned corn, drain and rinse it before using.
  • Add some crunch: To add some crunch to your corn salad, add some chopped red onion, celery, or bell pepper. You could also add some roasted corn kernels.
  • Make it spicy: If you like spicy food, add some diced jalapeño pepper or cayenne pepper to your corn salad.
  • Add some herbs: To add some freshness and flavor to your corn salad, add some chopped cilantro, parsley, or basil.
  • Dress it up: To dress your corn salad, use a simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper. You could also use a store-bought dressing, such as ranch dressing or Caesar dressing.
  • Serve it chilled: Corn salad is best served chilled. You can make it ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Frito corn salad is a delicious and easy-to-make summer salad. It's perfect for potlucks, picnics, and barbecues. With its sweet corn, crunchy vegetables, and creamy dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy summer salad, give this Frito corn salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
